Can anyone persuade me to/not to pull the trigger?

It depends how far you are in your studies and how much improvement you could see by October. If you can improve a lot in that time then I might suggest it. However you have to consider if you are applying this fall that if you take it in October your only realistic retake dates are Dec/Feb which is late in the cycle, if you don't wait another year, whereas if you do poorly in June you still have October as a retake option.

Taking it in June. Decided that I'd rather take it in June and be able to get my applications in nice and early if I'm satisfied with it; if I'm not satisfied with it, then I still have the October sitting to improve without getting in my applications absurdly late.
